No, what you say makes perfect sense and actually that's kind of what
I wrote in my first reply. However for reasons hidden inside [sssad]
it is not possible to actually use two seperate arguments like [sssad
volume $var], you can only use one single argument and the "$"-part
has to be at the beginning of that, so what you should use is: 

[sssad $var/volume] where "var" has to be an integer number like 1, 2, 3,...

So you can use [sssad $1/volume], or [sssad $2/vol] or [sssad
$1volume] or [sssad $12_volume]. All these are functional and will do
what you want to achieve. However these next three versions will *not*
work: [sssad volume/$1] and [sssad $1 volume] and [sssad volume $1]

Personally I like the "$x/name"-style the most.

Ciao
